Appearance

He was a small grey man with grey eyes and hair. He had a robe of grey wool with voluminous sleeves. In the sleeves were sewn pockets, from which Maester Luwin was always drawing things. [2] His maester's collar was a simple choker. [3] He often tugged at the chain around his neck when he was uncomfortable. [4] His turret was always so cluttered that it seemed to Bran a wonder that he ever found anything. He was one of the few maesters who bothered to study for the Valyrian steel link.[5]
Recent Events

After Robb's departure south after Lord Eddard had been taken prisoner, Maester Luwin is named castellan of Winterfell. He relinquished the title upon Ser Rodrik Cassel's return from the south.
